How do I get Width and Height values from a Movie Clip created just for contains external content loaded?
When I trace it I get "0", why?
Here is my code:
Code:
containerFotos.addChild(loader);
trace(containerFotos.width);
container = Movie Clip.
loader contains the External jpg image.
i'm trying to access the width and height of an image that is added to the stage via a custom LoadImage class. the trace results are 0 even though the image displays correctly.
//frame script
var image:LoadImage = new LoadImage("myImage.jpeg");
addChild(image);

i have a website that has a illustrated panoramic landscape which slides alone when the user clicks different pages. but when reading the stageHeight and width values i get the width of these movieclips not the actual stage size being viewed on the screen.
so instead of getting the height 1000 and width 700 i get the height as 1800 and the width of 6000 how can get around this?
I have an ActionScript project set up using the Flash Builder IDE. Using the Flex 4 compiler to compile it. At the top of my application class, I have:
[SWF(width="100%", height="100%")]
public class MediaPlayer extends MovieClip {
This is not acceptable to the compiler to do a release (it throws errors saying it can't parse the width/height values). Pretty annoying. I've tried to do things the "right" way, but none of the following work:
[Code]...
So the width and height attributes are being explicitly set to numbers here. I don't know much about the 'scale' attribute; maybe it is coming in to play here? And, to be clear: it will work as expected if I set the [SWF] meta tag to have width "100%" and height "100%"... so it seems like it actually is preferring the compiled arguments over the browser environment. Perhaps there are other settings I am missing?
I am trying to reference to top level (stage) width and height of the main stage for the placement of something located inside a movieclip on the stage.
My code is:
Code:
my_loader.x = (stage.stageWidth - my_loader.width)/2;
my_loader.y = (stage.stageHeight - my_loader.height)/2;
But this seems to just relate to the width/height of the mc that my_loader is nested in...
I have tried the following and had no luck:
stage.stage.stageWidth
root.stage.stageWidth
parent.stage.stageWidth
MovieClip(root).stage.stageWidth
i want to load external images of different height and width into same height and width.

View 0 RepliesI would like to use a movieclip to load a flv video. The problem I have is that I want to change the video dimensions. I've tried several software to change the video dimensions but as far as it seems all of them keep the same height-width ratio than in the original video. Is there any software that would allow me to change the height and width without keeping the same height/width ratio as in the original video file?

View 3 RepliesI am looking at the SimpleButton entirely wrong. Here's what I'm doing (inside of a MovieClip):

the close_btn.width and height remain 0. Am I supposed to just rely on the DisplayObject members of the SimpleButton completely and ignore width/height/x/y or what?
I have a game, in which the player can open maps to edit them. The maps each have their own colour. The player assigns a colour to the map by using sliders (R, G, B)
This all works fine.
However, I also need a way to put those sliders back in place when re-opening an existing map. This means that I need to know what the percentages of R, G and B are in a colour. I made flash trace a few of those colours, this is the output:
16646398
0
16646144
65024
58878
I need to know the amounts of R, G and B in any colour.
I created code based on a site I found that puts the XML into CSV's, here is the code:
var myXML:XML = new XML(); // instance of XML Obj.
myXML.ignoreWhite = true;
myXML.load(config.xml)
[Code].....
So after all of that, my question is, if that one tag XML file that I gave an example for has 100 or so lines, is there a way to call it without having to know the line it is on so you don't need to put the array value in all of the time?
The code works, I'm jsut unable to read the Class variable "myString" on the main timeline.I thought I could pass the "myString" value from the Class to the Main Timeline?I created a variable in an external Class .as file.See coding below.
//------- Code on main timeline .Fla
var testClass:MyClass = new MyClass(myString);
var myString:String;

I have a flash banner graphic that I created at 1000px wide by 420px tall. I want this to be fluid and fill the browser width, so that when the browser is rescaled the swf fills the horizontal space. My problem is that there is content below it that needs to touch it, but the height is trying to fill 100% so it is creating vertical space between the flash content and the div below it.
I guess a better way to describe it is that I don't want to define the height I just want the width to be 100%. At 100% height there is unused space so I need to make the height maybe undefined or something smaller then 100%?Also, if you make the browser too small vertically the width will not fill. So I want 100% width regardless of the browser height.
How do I set the width and height of my swf in AS3?
This is my code so far:
package {
import flash.display.Sprite;
public class Game extends Sprite {
}
}
Right now, when loaded it is at some arbitrary default size.
If I can't change the size this way, is there any easy work around that will be consistent?

is it possible to tell how big it currently is? i'd like to reposition some elements accordingly...
I'm trying to change the position of a movieclip I've added to the stage. When I try to access stage.width or stage.height I get 0. I've tried MovieClip(root).stage, DisplayObject(root).stage, root.stage, stage, and simply width and height. All of these are equal to zero.
View 1 RepliesI want to write a shell that creates instances of an app and scales it down for animating. Well, I created my shell class and instanced the app and set scales for x and y and then I traced the height and width because I wasn't sure what they'd be. I thought they'd be based on the stuff on the stage or whatever, but they both came up zero. So I'm not sure how that works, am I supposed to have set those values?

I have an empty movieclip in the stage that holds a backgroundbg._width = Stage.width;bg._height = Stage.height;the background is loaded from XML and works fine since I'm not set the width and heightbut if I set: bg._width = Stage.width and bg._height = Stage.height
View 1 RepliesI have two Canvas A and B, A is the child of B.A can be resized by some user actions like adding some UI components to its base.A is bounded by an other Parent canvas B which should show scolling handles if its child A gets too large.I would like A to have the same width and height of B (or really close) while the calculated width and height of A is smaller than those of B.If w or h of A get larger than those of B then A should grow and B will show scrolling.

View 1 RepliesI was wondering if there was a way to set an air app to fill 100% width and 100% height of the screen?
I know how to do it on the web by setting swf address parameters to 100% and setting stage.scalemode and stage.align
I am using FDT to publish my air package with an ANT build. So it does not use mxml, just my document .as class.
How can I use the width and height that's set by the object's embed code within my Flash movie?
I've got items that position based on stage height/width. Problem is although the object appears re-sized when you adjust the values in the embed, the stage size obviously does not change.
Ideally I'd like to position and scale objects based on the dimensions provided in the embed.
i want to zoom the movie clip, for this i have set the movieclip width and height with the button. It is correct or anything els
View 2 RepliesI'm am trying to load an external swf file using a different swf that is on a different domain. I have noticed that it is possible to use addChild on the external swf, but when I try to get its contents width and height using contentLoaderInfo I get a security sandbox error.it is possible to fix it by usingSecurity.allowDomain("*") andSecurity.allowInsecureDomain("*") in the external file.And now it's get tricky, the external swf file is a file that users upload to my site so I don't have control on the code so I can't add the "allowDomain" part.The second swf (the host file that loads the external file) is a file that I let others to embed on their site.The intresting thing is that when I share the host swf on facebook there is no problem, and I don't even need to add the code for "allowDomain" on the external file.I it makes a different, I use HTTPS protocol to access to the external swf
View 4 RepliesI'm writing jsfl script where I'm setting an element width and height. When I go to run the script, my element's width and height are off by what I set it to. For example, I set the width and height to 800, the results I get for width and height are 799.4, 799.0 respectively. I'm not understanding why my element's width and height aren't exactly what I typed in?Btw, I can go into the "size and position" property UI and set them to 800 x 800 and those values stick. It's only when I set the width and height via the element.width and element.height that my values change on me.
